Expanding your business into Poland is an exciting opportunity—but building a reliable local finance function can be challenging.

About Us — Progress Holding Sp. z o.o. – Your Local Finance Department in Poland

Every foreign company entering Poland must comply with Polish accounting, payroll, tax, employment and corporate regulations. Building an in-house finance department from day one is often unnecessary and expensive.
Progress Holding becomes your Local Finance Department in Poland, providing all financial, accounting and compliance functions required to establish and successfully operate your Polish business. .

Progress Holding has over 22 years of experience supporting foreign entrepreneurs doing business in Poland. Throughout this time, we have become a trusted accounting and business partner for international companies entering and expanding in the Polish market.

We help foreign investors successfully establish and manage their businesses in Poland by providing comprehensive support—from company registration to day-to-day accounting, payroll, tax compliance, and communication with Polish authorities.

Our goal is simple: to provide everything international businesses need to operate confidently and successfully in Poland.

Why Foreign Companies Choose Poland

Poland has become one of the most attractive destinations for foreign investment in Central Europe. Its strategic location, stable economy, highly skilled workforce, and access to the European Union’s single market make it an ideal place for international businesses looking to expand.

Why foreign companies choose Poland because it offers:

• Access to a market of nearly 38 million consumers and more than 450 million customers across the European Union.
• A well-educated, multilingual workforce with strong expertise in IT, manufacturing, logistics, engineering, and business services.
• Competitive operating costs compared with many Western European countries.
• A modern transport infrastructure and an excellent location for serving both Western and Eastern European markets.
• A dynamic business environment that supports innovation, exports, and international trade.
• Opportunities to benefit from investment incentives in selected industries and regions.

While Poland offers excellent business opportunities, foreign investors must also comply with local tax regulations, labour law, accounting standards, and administrative requirements. Understanding these regulations is essential for operating successfully and avoiding unnecessary risks.
Whether you are establishing your first Polish subsidiary or managing an established operation, Progress Holding provides the financial infrastructure your business needs to operate efficiently and compliantly in Poland.

We are not simply your accountant.
